biblical slavery was indentured servitude. They got a place to live and free food for their hard work they did. Nothing like the africans in chains in slavery from the 1800's. Thank God Christians put an end to that stuff.

Slaves in the bible could be bought, sold and killed, as long as they did not die from wounds within a few days. Christians created the slave trade of the 1800's why should they get credit for ending it?

if you studied it as much as I did, you would see how easy it is to spot how other religions are satanic.

"Enlightened" versions of Christianity are wrong as well. If people are bending the Bible to correspond to man's research, then that is their problem. That sounds like something Satan would say: "Do you really think evolution is false with all this evidence? It's true. Forget the Bible when discussing origins. Listen to me. Lean on your own understanding, not God's. If the bible is true, why did God give us all this evidence for evolution?"

The Bible does not need to bend to anyone and it's foolish to think it needs to be bent.

Big Bang Theory describes how God formed the universe. The old age gotten by scientists could be wrong because nobody was there to witness it. Can't playback a video of it. But the basic gist of the theory is the effects that God leftover, such as the background radiation and the expanding universe mentioned in Scripture.

That is a lot of bending that your demon has done, since the bible does not mention the cosmic background radiation and the Big Bang in any way. Aren't those ideas from man's research?

I don't care about the whole 'demon' thing, but putting some of the more egregious examples of his beliefs in one place for easy reference is a good idea. Frankly, your commentary isn't really even all that necessary - he convicts himself out of his own mouth and through his own words.

It is also for the benefit of the Christian reader, who should be horrified at Shep.

Satan masquerades as an angel of light. He'll be very nice to you if you're worshiping him. He will make you think you are worshiping God. He will give you things and you will think it's God giving them to you. He'll be your best pal, your best buddy....until the End Times when he will just laugh at you.

What does your demon, who pretends to be god, tell you to keep you ignorant?

It is very dangerous to follow your own understanding. This is a demonic doctrine. It's even written in the Bible, "Lean not on your own understanding." Demons want you to believe that you know it all and you don't need God.

So your demon, who pretends to be god, tells you not to think because it is demonic to think. That way he can feed you nonsense like this.

Also, the lack of genetic diversity off the arc is not a problem because back then, our DNA was not as messed up as it is now. Human DNA was originally near perfection. As we sinned more and more and each generation passed, the genetic information got smudged, beat up, rusty, etc etc etc. Incest back then was OK because our genes were still near perfection.

DNA does not show that it is smudged.

DNA shows the common ancestor of every person tested so far on the male line was a prehuman, over 100,000 years before the first modern human evolved. It also shows that modern humans interbred with other types of prehuman as they moved around the planet. This means that each person alive today can have several different prehuman ancestors. Modern humans are not descended from a single prehuman ancestor.

What makes you think I haven't studied them? It's precisely because I've studied them that I can point out the holes and flaws in the theory.

All fossils show fully formed creatures that were deposited after the flood. No fossil shows a species changing into a completely new species of animal. They have found out of place artifacts such as a hammer in strata dated to be "millions of years" and they assume it shouldn't be there because hammers weren't around millions of years ago. yet, they assume the fossils are millions of years old, unlike the hammer.

The illuminati believes science is the "one true God" and this is why they feed you these falsehoods. Lies told over and over again start to sound like the truth after a while. Illuminati is dedicated to the destruction of the Bible.

When will you be receiving your Nobel Prize for disproving evolution, Shep?

Many of you guys used to be believers and say you know the Bible, but ever since the fall of man, Satan has been influencing us. It's not that Satan is running the show. We are choosing to follow Satan so it just seems like Satan is running the show.

The truth of the matter is that the Crusades were about land and power. They wanted the land so they took it. They wanted power and control over the land. They didn't care what religion the people were. They just wanted them out of there so they can get the land and they used religion as an excuse. And then atheists say, "See! Look what religion does!"

I am very surprised how often this strawman gets repeated by the "intellectual atheists."

Find out which places the crusades were set up to capture and what the reason was.

While I have been most a reader rather than a participant and considering I'm a full atheist, I do not agree on making personalized threads to "mock" or "cyber-bully" someone for whatever reason there is.

The purpose is to bring together some of the scattered quotes because he kept changing subjects and jumping from thread to thread with random comments. There were so many complaints about his random comments.

If he chooses not to reply to questions, that is his problem. I keep asking him.

I have learned more putting this thread together than anything else I have done on this site.

Actually, I'm going to say WOW! Nice pointing this out Foxy! If the bible IS the word of a God then septictank actually IS spreading false doctrine and leading people away from the truth! He is spreading lies about what the bible says and contradicting the written word!

Reject the heretic demon possessed false prophet who denies the word as it is written!!!

Really? You think this quote has some relevance to your childish bullying thinly disguised as public service?

Gilding the lily. Polishing a turd.

The quote just means that people have different opinions.

This thread was only set up to keep the main ideas easily available. If you think that winning an argument against a "so called" Christian is bullying, then I am proud to be a bully.

If you think the thread is unpleasant, I did not choose the framework for the discourse. I did not choose to talk about demons. I did not choose to point out extreme moral degradation. I did not choose to point out ignorance posing as knowledge. These were the facts I was given to deal with.

Now if you would like to make a sensible comment instead of spitting out insults, you could tell me if you think I have made any factual errors.

Context FF, this one. No christian, true or otherwise, is oppressing anyone here. This thread has nothing to do with the oppression of non-christians. And I've said all I have to say on this topic. Carry on as you see fit.

You need to read what Shep believes.

The main themes underlying Shep's belief have been covered, so it is unnecessary to add further posts. They would just be repetition of the same. He can try to refute all the comments if he wants any discussion.

Though my attention was drawn by Foxy Freedom's double smites (smiting the same post more than once, which comes across as borderline abuse of the Darwin system), I find her behavior towards others in this thread (smiting at least two people more than once on the same post, and smiting them for 'bullying', which makes no sense in any context) to be disquieting, to say the least.

I don't think this thread has crossed the line into cyber-bullying. However, I do think it has the potential to, since Foxy has made it her personal mission to try to provoke a response from skeptic in this thread. Personally, it makes more sense to focus on the original point of the topic - to point out the sheer weirdness of skeptic's posts - and limit the commentary to providing context. Trying to aggressively attract skeptic's attention has a significant risk of backfiring, assuming skeptic continues to just ignore Foxy.

Agreed. Today is the first time I ever used the smite in two years or so. I wish I had not.
